Default Howlin' Wolf

Chester Arthur Burnett born 1910, White Station Mississippi. 6' 6" of raw power, a man that could rock the joint to it's foundations. He became a cornerstone of the Chicago Blues Scene in the 50's, and an icon in the music industry. My favourite Blues Legend.

Exclamation Re: Howlin' Wolf

I agree! Howlin' Wolf was already a legend by the time the British Invasion broke! And the "London Howlin' Wolf Sessions" is an album that does a great job of showcasing his talents.

^^^ Agreed I have the London Sessions on vinyl and disc just a fantastic sample of the Wolf mixing it with the UK's top musos and the man gives Eric a lesson in how it's done much to the joy of Clapton.

Howlin' Wolf fell under the influence of Charlie Patton at the Dockery Plantation. Charlie was one of the early blues stars and Wolf was a big fan.

I agree RS ,, I got it on vinyl in the eighties and again on cd a few years ago. For my money it's just a great showcase for the array of musicians that feature on it and with Wolf at the helm the sound is complete .. it just works.

He was the headliner at the Chicago Blues Festival 2010...I wasn't able to see him, but I got a t-shirt, and he was on the front. It definately would have been a cool act to see. Definately a blues legend!

Howlin Wolf is probably my favorite blues vocalist.

A couple of my faves. He was great at laughing at himself as well.

Hate to break it to you, but Chester Arthur Burnett (AKA: Howlin Wolf ) died on January 10, 1976.
